Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

Today I am exactly 14 days post op and tomorrow I an begin the pureed diet per my DR, sugar free- no concentrate sweets, less broth, Protein, thinking more baby food.

Can anyone give me suggestions because currently I am living it seems on two yoghurts and onion Soup broth. Periodically popsicles.

What are you doing at day 15-21...longing for suggestions.

I am down 18.8 lbs total but have stalled this week. Not worried about the weight really, I know with time it will come off.

Suggestions please.... I'm longing for like mashed potatoes, Soup with substance.

During my puree stage, I primarily ate Cream of Mushroom Soup, creamy Peanut Butter and soft scrambled eggs. My diet was very varied. :-)

I am loving pureed heartier Soups - Progresso Light chicken Pot Pie Soup, split pea, etc. I also pureed a can of higher quality turkey chili. I boiled 2 eggs and pureed with a little greek yogurt, mustard, and avocado. It's all so yummy! Denser foods are not feeling too good for me yet. I tried a baked ricotta from theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com and it was a little much, but good. I'll try it again tomorrow.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
